Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Subsection 13-2-5(1) gives the Director of the Division of Consumer Protection (Division) authorization to issue rules to administer and enforce the chapters listed in Section 13-2-1.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

The Division is not aware of any written comments regarding the rules. The interpretation of these rules is at times the subject of informal proceedings before the Division.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

Rule R152-15 is important to the effective administration of the Business Opportunity Disclosure Act. It sets an appropriate filing fee, requires contact information to be disclosed with a filing, describes the procedure for amendments to filings with the Division, and provides other clarifications to businesses seeking to comply with the Business Opportunity Disclosure Act. Section R152-15-3 provides clarification about enforcement of the act with respect to compensated employees or independent contractors receiving support, advice, or training in certain circumstances. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
